Hello,

from the two URLs you provide, it seems that i386 is working (for all FreeBSD 
versions) and only amd64 is failing : can you confirm this ?

then, one of the first steps would be a the dmesg of both a succeeding and a 
failing kernels (verbose !)

PS : is there any more recent version of the Dell BIOS ?
